Go To on Asking for Mercy

Published: Feb. 16, 2024, 9 a.m.

As you\u2019ll hear in this short letter from me to you, I am a little nervous about next week\u2019s episode. It\u2019s a conversation between a pro-life conservative named April Lawson and a pro-choice liberal (named Kelly Corrigan). I wanted to take a minute before the episode hits the feed to explain why I did this and to ask you for a wide berth, both for me and for my guest, as we dare to let down our guards and have a heart to heart about reproductive rights. It\u2019s our attempt to model respectful conversations where the differences are vast.\n\n\nSpecial thanks to the Arthur Vining Davis Foundations for their generous support of this series.\n\n\nTo receive a short set of our weekly takeaways in your email, sign up here.\n\n\nCheck out the episodes from our Rupture + Repair series:\n\n\nGoing Deep with M\xf3nica Guzm\xe1n on Making Family Work\n\n\nGoing Deep with Drs.
